Skopje International Airport

Unless you speak Macedonian this is a very difficult city if you want information about transport services. Most public transport in Skopje is provided by JSP a state controlled company. JSP buses have red roofs. Some routes are run by private companies with white roofs. Services on all 25 routes operate from around 05.00 until approximately 23.00

Five of these routes also provide a 'Midnight Service' which leave at 00.15 or 04.00. These services are a one off journey and should not be mistaken as all night services.

Bus time tables are a rare find though some kiosks will display them on the side. information including timetables on services is available on the JSP website which does have an English option.

Tickets for JSP buses can be bought for 25 DEN from kiosks or 30DEN if you pay on entry. A book of ten pre-paid tickets can also be purchased at kiosks for 225DEN. Tickets for the private white roofed buses are generally 20DEN and can only be purchased from the driver. Bus routes that go to the city's famous bazaar are the 9, 19, 20, and 57.

All routes can be very very busy and as the buses are fairly old travelling on them can be a nightmare especially early morning and mid afternoon.

Details of rail services to and from the airport are given on the Macedonian Railways website. Visitors to Skopje, who are planning to use trains in and out of Skopje are strongly advised to refer to this site as obtaining information ( in any other language except Macedonian) at the station itself is almost impossible.

The information centre is actually outside the station but its staff are not bi-lingual. The station itself was severely damaged in the sixties by an earthquake and is still operating using a hurriedly erected concrete building put up shortly afterwards.

The facilities are very basic though it does have a useful internet cafe. The public toilets are simply dreadful and finding the ticket office is quite challenging. - clue ground floor at the back!
